Amit Shah woos Muslims, stops midway during speech as azan sounds

Kolkata, Dec 1: BJP President Amit Shah not only managed to launch a scathing attack on West Bengal's chief minister Mamata Banerjee but also managed to woo the Muslim population here after he stopped mid way during his speech when the azan sounded at the nearby mosque.

Shah, whose rally witnessed initial hiccups after the police refused permission to hold the rally, stopped on hearing the azan and said: "Let us stop. We don't want to give Mamata any excuse."
